LHRC has called on the Government to consider her recommendations in the ongoing process to improve the proposed Tanzania Education Policy, 2022, including the fate of girl students who drop out of school because of pregnancy, with Executive Director Anna Henga saying the policy’s silence on the issue “worries us.”
She urged the Ministry to clarify by interpreting the non-formal system concept.LHRC has also criticized the draft policy for being silent on corporal punishment. It wants the policy to clarify whether the punishment will remain or not.
LHRC wants the policy to recognize key educational personnel, including education officers working on issues of culture, ICTs, etc., whom the draft policy remains silent about.
